Question about exp debt

Hi!

I was just looking for confirmation that exp debt actually does not stack, because i was thinking that it's possible it only appears that it doesn't stack, when in actuality it does... for example, you die and gain a 500 pt debt, and are set at 100%.... then if you die again, go 500 more points into debt, making 1000 the new "100%" point, which from the players perspective would appear not to stack, but it would cause debt recovery to be slower.

Is it intentionally coded not to stack, or is this just player assumption? I'm not really doubting the players I've heard this from (as i suspect they are right), but I'm still curious to hear how it actually works. If it is intentionally coded not to stack, then how is a second death handled when you are below 100% debt but not fully out of it? Does it just put you back to the same "100% mark" that you got from the first death?

Looking for explatation from a gm/dev or someone who's been around long enough to know for certain :)

Thanks!

It does not stack. My mage died 3 times in a row yesterday (sigh), and revovered his debt at the same rate as my shaman, who only died once. Yeah, I've been eating alot of debt lately. ;(
 
definately doesn't stack. HOWEVER.

If you die twice, pay off no debt, and only rezz one corpse, you'll still have 100% xp debt. You have to rezz both corpses, or debt will not be cleared.
 
Are you possitive you need to rez both.

I seem to recall that only the first coerpse can be rezzed for exp. Or rather each corpse can be rezzed fro as much exp debth it has paid off. So if you die, make 50% dept back and die again, each corpse can be rezzed for 50%.

Is this wrong?
 
I thought that if you died (that would be corpse A) and then died again (corpse B lol) this is how it would work:

As long as both corpses still exist ingame, corpse A is the only corpse that can be rezed for full exp return. However, if you managed to get some exp in between your death(the one that created corpse B) then corpse B could be rezed for as much exp debt as you gained there in the middle.

But correct me if I am wrong.
 
Ok, to clarify this issue.
If you die (and have no exp dept) your corpse can be rezzed for 100% dept payoff (tho a cleric can max rez for 96%)
Now, if you die directly after rez that corpse can be rezzed for max 96% (you still had 4% dept left)
Ok, lets say you die with no dept, that corpse can be rezzed for 100%, you don't rez that but continue to fight and die again after you have worked off so you only had 63% dept left.
Now, second corpse can be rezzed for 37%, first corpse can still be rezzed for 100% if it still exists, tho you can only be rezzed for a dept, if you rez both corpses now you will have 0% left (4% normaly from a 96% rez) but you won't get any exp for the % that you rezzed over, first corpse will be rezzed for 96% next corpse could be rezzed for 37% but you only have 4% left so you only pay off that part.
Ok, hope this made sense.
